Why choose the mountains in summer?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When temperatures rise, the mountains become a natural refuge. Nights are cooler, forests provide shade and rivers invite you to cool off after a hike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the mountains offer much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summer is the perfect time to discover trails, observe wildlife, visit charming villages<\/a> or practise adventure sports surrounded by some of the most spectacular landscapes in Catalonia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the Girona Pyrenees<\/strong> allow you to combine nature, <\/strong>gastronomy<\/strong><\/a>, heritage and outdoor activities<\/strong> in a single getaway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best summer activities in the mountains<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hiking is one of the best ways to get to know the Pyrenees. You will find itineraries for all levels: family walks, routes through beech forests, climbs to peaks or routes through natural parks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Places such as the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone<\/strong><\/a>, the Camprodon Valley<\/strong> or Cerdanya<\/strong> offer hundreds of kilometres of signposted paths to discover the territory at your own pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cool off in rivers, natural pools and lakes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Summer is also synonymous with water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Pyrenees and inland Girona you will find numerous rivers, natural pools and small lakes that are ideal for cooling off, always respecting the regulations and recommendations of each natural area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
